We had a nice turnout today, great weather, and some new shooters! Welcome to Alex and Sean. It was nice to see Bob and Tim back and also to our returning new shooters from last time Deitrich and Scott. Steve brought a nice star gauged match 1903 with lyman sight. Theme this month was "Springfield" and we had about half 1903/A3 shooters with the rest shooting M1's. Congrats to the top 50%. Pistol was well attended and very good scores. Most of the shooters brought 1911's! Deitrich improved his score from last month quite a bit. Congrats to the winners in the top 50% including Alex shooting his first pistol match with us as well, good shooting!
Remember, next month theme will be ww2 or before sniper with 4x power or lower, you are always welcome to bring any vintage legal rifle and shoot, or anything else just for fun. Match will be 60 rounds plus sighters. Remember to email me and let me know if you are interested in 30-06 ammo for the match, please put AMMO FOR AUGUST MATCH in the subject line.

This is a blog for information relating to Vintage Military Rifle and Pistol competions run in Sherwood, Oregon. This discipline combines all of collecting, fixing and understanding the designs of old weapons, custom reloading/bullet casting, and marksmanship. Many of these old rifles have simplistic sights and force you to take detailed notes of positions, sight picture and aiming point since you can't just dial in a simple 6 oclock hold.
